Chunk Monkey is Coming to the Gower Show 2025

Chunk Monkey is heading to the Gower Show – see our handmade chunky furniture up close!

We’re gearing up for another exciting adventure – this time, Chunk Monkey is heading to the Gower Show on Sunday 2nd August, and we can’t wait to bring our unique blend of rustic charm and industrial style to this iconic Welsh event.

Set in the beautiful grounds of Penrice Castle Park, just a short drive from Swansea, the Gower Show is a summer highlight for families, locals, and visitors alike. We’re thrilled to be showcasing our handmade chunky furniture in such an incredible setting.

Meet the Chunk Monkey Team – and Chunk Himself!

The full Chunk Monkey crew will be there, full of energy and ready to chat all things furniture. And yes – Chunk, our beloved giant monkey mascot, will be roaming the fields causing mischief and posing for photos. You’ll definitely spot him (and probably hear him!) from across the park.

Discover Rustic & Industrial Handmade Furniture

We’re bringing along a selection of our signature chunky, handcrafted furniture – made right here in our Swansea workshop. From rustic reclaimed wood benches to industrial-style tables, this is a great opportunity to see the craftsmanship, quality and character that goes into every piece we create.

Whether you’re looking to add a statement piece to your home, explore ideas for a full makeover or simply admire the details of truly handmade furniture, we’d love to meet you.

Family Fun, Exclusive Offers & More

As always, our set-up will be full of life – expect inflatable bananas, jungle-themed fun, and a warm, family-friendly welcome. We'll also be running exclusive show-day offers on selected pieces of chunky furniture, so it’s a great time to make that long-considered purchase.

Why You Shouldn’t Miss the Gower Show

The Gower Show is a fantastic day out with everything from livestock displays and artisan crafts to live music and delicious local food. We’re proud to represent local Swansea craftsmanship among so many great Welsh businesses.

So if you’re planning a trip to the Gower Show this August, make sure you stop by the Chunk Monkey stand. Just follow the laughter, look out for the bananas, and don’t miss your chance to experience our bold, handmade rustic and industrial furniture up close.
